They would have came with two sizes (or none) in '53 from the factory. Measure the size of the cannister to determine if you need the tall filter (somewhere around 8" tall) or the small filter (around 4-5").

These old filters can be picked up off the shelf at Napa for $8-10. Ill look around and see if I can come up with the part number. You may also be able to take the old filter out of the cannister and look for a number on the side of the filter.
